The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) carried out a new targeted attack in Beirut.
The attack, according to Reuters, targeted senior Hezbollah leader Ali Karaki, head of the organization’s southern front.
Since early morning, the IDF has been targeting areas in southern Lebanon, with residents in some areas receiving text and voice messages urging them to leave “residential buildings used by Hezbollah to hide weapons.”
